Lyme Park

I made a visit to Lyme Park which is on the edge of the Peak District. Here is a photograph of Lyme House that I took, which is the stately home that is situated in the grounds of the park. 



I love the reflection of the house in the lake


The house has been featured in the BBC adaptation of Pride and Prejudice....one of my favourites! The gardens are beautiful as is the scenary and so is the house but check it's open before you go!

Crosby Beach, Liverpool

I made an early morning visit to Crosby Beach about 3 weeks ago. Crosby Beach is home to 'Another Place' an exhibition by Antony Gormley. He has created iron life-size figures that stand in the sand. Well worse a visit, even if the weather isn't great which is wasn't on the day that I went. 




A great view of the lighthouse



You can just spot a figure right of the lighthouse











A bird having a little rest 


A different view of the beach



The church over the sand dunes





A view of the figures in the distance

Sefton Park, Liverpool

I made an early morning trip to Sefton Park in Liverpool about a month ago to take some snaps and here's a selection of them.

I really like the reflection in the water



I caught these two having a morning natter!
I thought the moss looked like icicles




I do enjoy photographing trees, some have real character
